Re: peeling lips (off topic)

Mook, I have had exfoliative cheilitis for 9 years now and like everyone else, have tried everything and seen everyone. Please keep us informed(or you may e-mail me personally) as to how your No-LIP Balm efforts are going. I have not used any topical steriods for the past 2 years and only applied Aquaphor 3 to 4 times daily to keep them moist. Perhaps I should try your method although the appearance would be very chapped...at this point I am open to anything.

Have you noticed any skin thinning over the years resulting to increase wrinkles and lateral fine lines. I have. In fact, when I apply any steroid my bottom lip actually looks worse due to the inflammation going down and the wrinkles increasing. They actually look better with the inflammation as it stretches the skin gives it a more smooth appearance. Tweet
